"Mere ideals are the cheapest things in life. The more ideals a man has the more contemptible he is if the matter ends there, if there is no courage shown, no privations undergone, no scars contracted in the effort to get them realized." William James

Interview at The Real Ugly American

I did an interview at www.therealuglyamerican.com yesterday so everyone be sure to check it out. The Ugly American has a great site going and has done some good interviews lately. Be sure to check out his site. Speaking of interviews the next installment of the "Who's Fighting For You" series will be coming any day now so stay tuned.

Great Interview Sergeant Boggs! You have a wonderful site and you are doing great job over there! Thank you for all your hard work you are doing. God Bless you and all the soldiers protecting our great country!

I'm going to be linking your blog off of mine. I'm impressed with all your great articles. Keep it up!

Hey! Finally got a chance to stop over and check out your blog! Good job! I got a neat hint for you for the coin I sent you...one of my other adopted soldiers said he drilled a hole in it and put it on his dog tags, that way he would never loose it! Take care!Pam

Thanks neurotic mom for what you said about Sgt Boggs on your blog. Hope you don't mind but we clicked your photo, read you, and listened to the great song you put up for Boggs and the boys. They are great, aren't they! Stay safe Boggs and Company!Fellow military blog readers,A&N

I just wanted to say thank you to Sgt. Boggs for the interview and for writing here at his blog.

As civilians my wife and I are hungery for news from the troops. How they are doing? How is their morale?

Just basic human stuff so we can know that they are well.

Learning about their backgrounds,hobbies,families and people that care about them back here at home connects us to them. It lets each of us know, that could be our son or daughter, our brother our sister, our dad or mom.

I think most civilians feel this way.

As for the other questions I asked,like "Have you seen any progress in the reconstruction or the Iraqi security forces?"

is due to a basic mistrust of the MSM. Many of us feel we are not getting the real story or the whole story from the news. Who better to ask than the people fighting this war who see it first hand?

Thank you again Sgt. Boggs for your service, for the interview, for your fantastic blog.
